After taking a shower, Faye had just stepped out of the bathroom when she heard a knock on the door. She casually dried her hair and looked out through the peephole. As expected, it was Joshua with Emily. Faye's heart tightened. She hoped that her decision to call them over hadn't angered him. This was the reason why she had asked Lily to bring Emily along; with a child present, a father would always restrain himself a bit. Since she had already made her choice, she should face him more bravely, shouldn't she? Faye pulled up the collar of her bathrobe, took a deep breath, and opened the door. Joshua stood outside, wearing a fitted T-shirt and linen casual pants, looking more approachable than his usual self. He held Emily with one hand and casually tucked the other into his pocket.
